Mascara -Cover Girl - Lash Blast

Wow! All I have to say is this stuff lives up to all the hype. Believe me when I say I've tried a ton of mascaras, looking for the one that will thicken and curl my stick straight long lashes without smudging. I put this on early this a.m. went to a birthday party in 90 degree heat, took my kids to the park, came home tonight and my lashes are still thick, curled and not a smudge in sight. I bought this in blackest black for $5.99 ($6.99 - $1 coupon) at Target. I think I've found my HG mascara....and it's a bargain!

Blush -Bobbi Brown - Pot Rouge for Lips & Cheeks- Chocolate Cherry
rated 5 of 5

I love this blush/lipcolor...it's perfect for my skin tone (dark hair and eyes). Provides a beautiful deep red flush to my cheeks when applied sparingly w/ my skunk brush. Beautiful lip stain as well. Staying power is great...will definitely repurchase this if I ever run out...which will be a very long time!

Blush -Stila - Color Push Up in Sweet Flash
rated 5 of 5

Wow! I just swapped for this not really knowing what to expect. I've tried the old push ups with no luck, but the newer formulation is fantastic. The color is just as described in the other reviews...beautiful! Lasts most of the day on my oily skin...I just do a little touch up in the late afternoon. What I love most is using this on my lips...it blends beautifully on my pigmented lips and leaves a nice sunkissed stain as it wears. The size is a nice bonus too,as you can take it anywhere...so tiny! I would definitely repurchase this.

Eye Shadow -Trish McEvoy - Glaze in Denim
rated 5 of 5
amyt 10/19/2002 9:16:00 AM

When the makeup artist suggested this I was a little hesitant as I'm pretty conservative when it comes to makeup and blue shadow/liner sounded a little crazy to me....but I gave it a shot. What an amazing difference this made in my eyes...it really opened them up and brightened the color. I have dark brown eyes and this looked stunning...I never thought I could pull it off but the beautiful navy blue with subtle shimmer worked wonders. If you're able to pick one of these up, it's a definite staple for everyone!

Mascara -Trish McEvoy - Lash Builder
rated 4 of 5

I love this stuff. I received a free sample of this last week and I haven't seen anything like it...what a difference it made in my lashes!! I have really long, stick straight lashes so it's very difficult to keep the curl in them for long. This coupled with my Shu curler and little Defincils makes my lashes so full... and they stay curled all day. Still waiting to see how long the consistency will last (no clumping) but if I'm able to get some mileage out of this tube, it will definitely be a repurchase. Thumbs up!

Palettes -Stila - Lipglaze Duo Palette
rated 5 of 5
amyt 2/17/2002 5:48:00 PM

What can I say....I kept putting off purchasing this cute little palette and I finally broke down and bought it. I love this palette!! I've never tried Stila Lipglazes because I think $24 for a gloss is a little over the top. So when they came out with the palette I figured I could try most of them at a much cheaper price. These smell fabulous and while there are a ton of knockoffs they all seem to have a sickly sweet (nutrisweet IMO) taste that I can't stand! Stila's have a very subtle,if any,taste, a nice hint of color and last a fair amount of time. If you've never tried these you can't pass up the value of the palette...10 shades for less than the cost of 2 pens!! This gets a big thumbs up from me!

I love this product. I have these in Berry and Mauve and can't wait to try more. Leaves a nice color that lasts almost all day. I only had to reapply this once between 9am and 8 pm. Big thumbs up!

Gets every lash, looks natural and doesn't smudge, flake, clump or fade. Overall A+ mascara. This gets a big thumbs up in my book

Styling Products -Sebastian - Molding Mud

This is the first product I've used that's given me the perfect piece-y/textured style time after time. I've tried so many of these products...from Beach Hair to Water Wax and nothing has worked quite like this. Great stuff and it smells fab too!!

Skincare - Face -Lancome - Re-Surface
rated 5 of 5
amyt 9/25/2001 7:33:00 PM

I can't believe it took me so long to review this product. I have been using this for over a year now and I must say that this makes my skin glow. My complexion is oily w/ the occasional pimple every now and then....this makes my skin soft and smooth without being greasy. The clarity is amazing. I've tried many products and this still ranks at the top.

Mascara -Clinique - Lash Doubling Mascara
rated 5 of 5

I love this mascara. It really brightens my eyes...if that makes any sense. It defines my lashes, lasts all day, doesn't smudge and comes off with just water!!! You've got to love that. I highly recommend this to everyone.

Hair Color -Garnier - Nutrisse Permanent Creme Hair Color
rated 5 of 5
amyt 8/2/2001 10:09:00 PM

I've been searching for a natural looking color (like my own) to cover up my brassy/overgrown highlights and this did the job. The color swatch in the store was exactly right...a beautiful chestnut brown. I chose Cinnamon Stick (color 43...I think!) My hair is soft and shiny and the color is so natural looking (O.K. I'm beginning to sound like Sarah Jessica Parker!) but I can't recommend a better product. I won't have to touch up either as it's that true to my natural color. A++

Hair -John Frieda - Shaping & Glossing Balm
rated 4 of 5
amyt 7/27/2001 8:40:00 PM

I really like this....so much that I've bought it twice. It's great for the messy/piece-y shag to separate ends and give texture. It has a waxy (not greasy) consistency, so it works well with my fine oily hair. I only use this on the ends after I've finished styling...Good product and a great price.

Blush -L'Oreal - Translucide Gel Blush [DISCONTINUED]
rated 4 of 5

Great, cheap product that works! You gotta love that! I have this in Barest Glow (golden tan shade) and I love the natural color it gives my complexion. Lasts a long time and is easy to apply...I would definitely buy this again.

Blush -Stila - Color Push-Up in Blush Flash
rated 2 of 5
amyt 7/27/2001 8:27:00 PM

I found this to be a complete waste of money and returned it immediately. The color showed up nicely on my cheeks but unfortunately it lasted all of an hour!! There are much better (and cheaper) cheek gels out there that will perform better. The packaging is adorable (signature Stila)...very portable... but that's about all this product has going for it. Thumbs down!
